The resulting battle plan included the use of up to 100,000 German troops to back up half a million British and American soldiers attacking through northern Germany.

Well, the Germans attacked Russia with over a million men and it did not turn out so well. On the other hand, I am sure American forces would also be coming WEST right after they finished up with Japan

Maybe it could, maybe not. Don't forget. By this time, our State Department was infiltrated with lots of sympathizers. It could have succeeded if we used the A bomb. At that time, in 1945, we - the United States - was the only one who had it. Russia, with the rest of the world, was in shatters. We could have taken a plane right over Moscow and wiped it out. No more Stalin, etc. Maybe if Harry Truman could have been given a glimpse of the future to come he might have ordered it. Korea, Vietnam, Greece, China, an out of control CIA, JFK, Cuban Missile Crisis, Bill Clinton, Lyndon Johnson, terrorists, the Iran hostage crisis, etc. Most of this happened due to Communism.
